Where could my title/names have gone?

[Guest]

The titles/names I gave my pictures/albums are no longer under the file
folders. When I create a folder to group pictures in I always give it a name
or it at least has the date under it. Now my folders and single pictures are
there but there are no titles, names or even dates under them.

I don't understand what could have happened to cause this. I'm running
Windows XP SP2 and have been since SP2 was first available. I have not
changed anything that I know of in my system nor have I installed anything
lately. If anyone has any idea what might have changed in my system to have
caused this and can tell me how to change it back to where I can see the
titles, names, dates, etc. please let me know how to change it back.

Thanks for any advise you can share.

==================================
The following tweak originally posted by
Yves Alarie should solve the problem.

"How to Restore or Disable File Names
for Thumbnails in Windows XP"
(works for thumbnail view and filmstrip view)

Open a folder that contains image files.

Press and hold your Shift key while clicking
on the View button and select Details.

Continue holding the Shift key and click
on the View button and select Thumbnails
again.

Thanks John

I saw from your first response that I had interpreted OP's needs incorrectly.

That worked, of course.Thanks so much guys! I did try to find the answer by
myself. I searched for several hours and gave up knowing I could get help
from this newsgroup as always. Thanks for being here to help. I certainly do
appreciate it.
Have a great day. I will now. Thanks again.
